Torreon del Monje

Galapagos Islands are an archipelago of volcanic islands located in the Pacific Ocean straddling the equator and roughly 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador. A UNESCO World Heritage site, it is one of the world's most important conservation areas, home to a large number of rare and endemic species, including birds, reptiles and mammals. A visit to this remarkable place offers a unique opportunity to experience the flora and fauna of a remote, untouched area. The Galapagos provide excellent opportunities for wildlife-viewing, snorkeling, diving, kayaking and beach-going. Visitors can discover the species and landscapes that Charles Darwin found so inspiring. Here you will find giant tortoises, marine iguanas, sea lions, dolphins, and the famous Galapagos penguin, just to name a few. We warmly recommend that travelers take the time to visit these islands, as they will be presented with an unparalleled experience to observe the beauty of nature and its wonders in a very special setting.
